Love My Mama - Paper Issues

I love this pic of my mom and I on Mother's Day from 2018.

That, and I love a good brunch!  That would probably be my favorite meal ever.  

I wanted to create something really girly and used the Flower Market Collection that I grabbed 

from Paper Issues.  Maybe you grabbed it too?  If so, creating a sideways layout was kinda fun!

Pick Up Chicks - Paper Issues

So last night, there was a Scrap and Chat over on the Paper Issues PIFF FB page.  We were given a list of items.  We needed to pick a minimum of 8 from the list and add those to a new , never before seen layout.  I chose: Silver, Gold, Paper Clip, Alpha Stickers, Washi Tape, Tag, Staple, Enamel, label and Date Stamp.

This is how it came out!  It is from our trip to Topsfield Fair.  

We were able to hold baby chics!

Smile Handsome - Paper Issues

Paper Issues is shining a spotlight on Jen Hadfield's Simple Life Collection

 by Pebbles on their blog today.

The story goes..... when I saw the woodgrain cow, I knew exactly what pictures I wanted to use!  

We were apple picking at Applecrest in NH when we walked past this fella.  Apparently he loves apples.  Thank goodness we hadn't paid for them yet!

We Hunt Together - A Flair for Buttons

Morning.

Recently my little family took a trip home to Maine.  My boys thought hunting was fun while I got to visit with my immediate family and cut down greenery for Christmas decorating.  (So I dont have to pay an arm and a leg for it here!)  They had a great time in the woods and I had a great time in the house!!  lol.  While they were hoping for a deer, I was cancelling their request by hoping they didn't!  That works right?  Well, it did this time!

My layout today is over on the A Flair for Buttons blog.  I used Pebbles Warm & Cozy design by Jen Hadfield which you can purchase over in the Paper Issues Store.  Use code: Mary-Ann for 20% off.

Game Ball - Paper Camellia

Yup, that is my handsome boy who received the game ball that day for the Braves!  He had a great hit that helped his team score!  This layout is over on the Paper Camellia blog today.  Head over and check it out.  I used the Main Scrapbooking Kit and the Embellishment Add on as well.

Sisters - Paper Camellia

Today, I'm on the  Paper Camellia blog with a layout I created of my sister and I.  She is blonde, much much taller and my best friend!  I only wish we could could get together more often. 

For my layout, I used both the main kit and the embellishment add-on kit.  If you head over to the PC blog, you can retrieve the links to all the scrapbooking goodness.  Thanks for taking a peek.

Cider Donuts - Paper Camellia

Today I am over on the Paper Camellia blog, sharing this layout of my boy, eating our favorite fall food!  If you have never had a fresh cider donut, you are not living.  It is the most amazing thing ever.  It is soft and crunchy all at the same time.  It truly is divine.  

Ok, time to go check it out over on the Paper Camellia blog.  

Happy - Paper Camellia

Today is a big day over at Paper Camellia.  

We are announcing the November scrapbooking kit and add ons that are available.  

This month is probably one of my favorites.  It combines Pink Paislee with touches of Jen Hadfields, Homemade collection.  It is definitely fitting product for this time of year.  

Here is a look at my first layout for the month, using only the Main Scrapbooking kit.  I didn't use half of the product available.  There are thickers that will be making a debut on my projects later in the month that is for sure.  

I fussy cut these flowers out of one of the Pink Paislee Cedar Lane papers.  I layered some with foam tape for dimension.  

This is my family and my mom, apple picking just a few weeks ago.  I think we were on the hay ride here.  

For my title.  I chopped down one of the 3x4 cards and covered the bottom word.  

I wanted the blue and just the word Happy.  

Thanks for taking a peek.
